Swissvax'ed Jet Black BMW E92 M3 Coupe

This BMW M3 was in dire need of some TLC!

I went ahead and gave this car an Initial Swissvax exterior package. No work was done to the interior.

The entire process took about 8 hours.

Here's how the car looked when it arrived:









































I started the cleansing stage with the wheels. The wheels got a nice coat of SONAX Full Effect, and the tires and wheel wells were cleaned with 1Z W99.




Following the wheels, I proceeded to clean the rest of the exterior. P21S TAW was used in all the body crevices, plastic mesh parts, and other hard-to-reach areas. I also Cleaned all the rubber seals using P21s TAW. The next step was washing the exterior using Swissvax Car Bath and a Swissvax Waschpudel.

After the wash, I proceeded to clay the entire exterior surface using Swissvax Paint Rubber, including the Paint, Glass, and Wheels. Following that, the entire vehicle was given a wipe down with Isopropyl alcohol to remove the clay residue.









Following the alcohol wipe down, I proceeded to apply Swissvax Seal Feed and Protection to all the Rubber and Plastic parts respectively. Next, I applied Cleaner Fluid Medium using the Porter Cable with a Swissvax Gloss pad (Black). This left the paintwork with an incredible shine that had to be seen to be believed; while attaining about 20-30% correction of the paintwork.

The paintwork was thereafter given a coat of Swissvax Blau-Weiss wax for BMW Paint Systems, and a final wipe down with Swissvax Quick Finish.

Buffing off the Blau-Weiss wax wit ha Swissvax MicroPolish towel




Door, Hood, and Trunk shuts finished with Swissvax Nano Express










Finished!



















That's all for that one!

-#0000 Steel Wool

The shine is permanent. Swissvax Cleaner Fluid is a permanent treatment that nourishes the paintwork. Even after the wax later wears away, the surface will remain with the deep gloss, however will deteriorate just like anything if not properly maintained. a layer of Blau-Weiss wax will typically last 2-3 months.

Looking at any thread Scheer Speed creates will have you thinking twice about washing your car, bathing, laundry and anything else that involves soap.
